Under 36,000 mi, I installed 4 new tires (Nokian). About 700 miles later tire-pressure light blinked on/off, then on for about two minutes. Then would not go on again. Dealer checked tires, including spare, and pressed reset button. Dealer said that the tire shop had probably failed to press reset button. Now, about 800 mi later tire pressure light is on again, this time a steady bright. (By the way, I cannot find spare-tire latch release on bottom of spare tire cover.) I've checked tire pressure, and of course it's where it should be, 32 lbs.

Replying to: julieo1 (Apr 04, 2009 2:08 pm) I've heard from other forums that you need to check the tire pressure of the SPARE. For 2006+ Rav4s, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System is electronically monitored by a module on each individual tire stem, and the spare has one of these as well. Good luck, hope this helps!

My GPS plug is stuck in console power plug of brand new 2009 RAV4. Any suggestions of how to get it out.

Replying to: billiej (Apr 12, 2009 2:14 pm) I have a Garmin Nuvi 760 GPS although it is not stuck it is damned hard to pull out. You need to wiggle it and use lots of elbow grease. The first time I pulled it out I thought that all the guts of th12 volt plugin in my Rav4 was going to pull out. Good Luck Ghis |

Replying to: julieo1 (Apr 11, 2009 10:13 am) I typed a long message, but erased it by mistake. If all five tires are with three/four lbs of 32lbs (that is, under 32 lbs), then bring the car to the dealer. He should (1) computer scan under the dash for error codes; (2) check pressure monitor on each of the five wheels for a reading 9my car failed to give a reading on one of the monitors). If a monitor has failed, he should replace (and rebalance the wheel) under waRRENTY. bY THE WAY, THE SPARE TIRE DOES LOSS PRESSURE MONTHLY, AS DO THE OTHER TIRES. .

Replying to: lenny20 (Apr 14, 2009 11:44 am)  But you probably know that. People do tend to ignore their spare tires. I guess the TPMS is good for that reason, even if it's irritating when the light goes on. |
